Gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry
Gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) underpins VOC analysis, environmental monitoring, food safety testing, forensic chemistry, and pharmaceutical impurity profiling. Where quadrupole mass selective detectors become a bottleneck in fast GC workflows through scanning delays, missed co-eluting peaks, or limited spectral quality, the SAI Kronus provides a practical upgrade path without replacing the GC itself.

Parallel ToF acquisition
For
Agilent GC
Agilent GC
A retrofit ToF mass spectrometer for Agilent GC systems. Replaces the quadrupole MSD to deliver full-spectrum parallel acquisition at every time point, eliminating scanning delays and enabling clean spectral deconvolution of co-eluting compounds at fast acquisition rates.
Key Capabilities
| Full-spectrum parallel ToF acquisition with no scanning delay |
| Retrofit design for Agilent GC platforms |
| Ideally suited to the rapid analysis of complex organics using GCxGC |
| High-quality library-matchable spectra at fast acquisition rates |
